Regulation and translational medicine workshop - Thursday 21st August
Published: 25 April 2018
The Glasgow Molecular Pathology Node is organising a workshop, facilitated by the MRC Regulatory Support Centre, to increase awareness of regulatory concerns for translational research and to help researchers identify specific considerations for their own translational research.
Regulatory issues are intimidating to both basic scientists and clinicians and encompass ethics involved in human research, tissue banking and material transfer agreements, intellectual property rights, toxicology and manufacturing regulations, FDA and MHRA approvals, study sponsorship and insurance, as well as trial and data monitoring. The MRC Regulatory Support Centre (RSC) helps the scientific community implement legislative and good practice requirements relating to research involving human participants, their tissues or data.
The Glasgow Molecular Pathology Node is organising a workshop, facilitated by the MRC Regulatory Support Centre, to increase awareness of regulatory concerns for translational research and to help researchers identify specific considerations for their own translational research.
The workshop will provide you with:
- An overview of the regulatory landscape when research involves people as participants, their tissues or data
- An understanding of where you are currently, and what you need to start thinking about now in terms of compliance when research involves people as participants, their tissues or data
- Sources of help and support.

The workshop is aimed at research coordinators and academics and will take place on Thursday 21st August at the Imaging Centre of Excellence, Queen Elizabeth University Hospital from 12.00-5:00 (lunch will be provided).
